The District is offering a Well Water Checkup event this spring for well owners in our territory. To check if you’re located in the District, please visit this link. It’s recommended that well owners get their water tested annually to ensure its safe for consumption.
Tests cost $15 each (cash or check), but the first 30 people to pick up a sampling kit from our office will get one free!
How to Participate:
March 24 – April 4 | 8am to 5pm
During regular business hours, pick up a testing kit from the District at 1124 Regal Row, Austin, Texas. The kit includes instructions and supplies needed for collecting a well water sample.
April 7 | 8 to 11am
Return water samples to the District office.
To ensure the accuracy of bacteria testing, collect your water sample no earlier than April 6 at 5pm. Samples collected too early won’t accurately show the presence of bacteria.
April 8 (Optional) | 11am – 12pm
Join Texas Well Owner Network’s Joel Pigg for a 1-hour explanation of your results, water well protection practices (with a focus on well heads), and recommendations for remediating well contamination. This event will take place at the Wimberley Village Library located at 400 FM 2325 in Wimberley, Texas.
If you don’t attend, don’t worry! The District will email your results to you by April 22.
